Shaun completed his Bachelor of Science (Clinical Science) and Masters in Osteopathy at Victoria University.
Shaun’s practice style incorporates manual therapy-based treatment and has a particular interest in rehabilitation and promoting self-health and wellbeing through education and lifestyle changes.
Shaun also consults for Corporate Work Health Australia who specialise in workplace ergonomic assessments and education, and currently conducts ergonomic training and risk assessments across Melbourne. In 2020, Shaun completed his Diploma in Work Health & Safety and consequently was recognised by Osteopathy Australia as an Advanced Occupational Health Osteopath (vocational).
If Shaun wasn’t busy enough, he has recently started teaching in the Osteopathy course at Victoria University.
Shaun is an avid basketballer. After playing for more than 15 years, including a tour of the USA, he moved into coaching in both junior and senior programs at the Blackburn Basketball Club.
Outside of work, you will find Shaun watching or participating in whatever sport is available, which often includes a round of golf with his mates or watching his beloved Collingwood Football Club.
Shaun is available for consultations at our Melbourne City CBD Clinic on Mondays and Wednesdays. When not working in the CBD, Shaun consults at The Osteopaths of Blackburn.
